Ride to Pikes Peak

An opportunity for a mother and son to do something special for Polycystic Kidney Disease, for organ donation and for us.

In 1806, Zebulon Pike traveled west and sighted Pikes Peak. We biked 990 miles along his route and then ran the Pikes Peak Marathon. We are so grateful for the opportunity to raise PKD awareness. PKD caused the failure of Pat’s kidneys. A transplant saved her life eight years ago. Pat’s brothers, sisters and mother were afflicted with PKD, seven in all. Pat describes how PKD affected her life and televised news features are in the "News Coverage" link on the left margin.

A week of training

This was the kind of week I hope to repeat throughout June and July. Monday - Friday I alternated 2 hour spinning rides and running. I always end at 7:00am so I have time for breakfast with my son. I did two weight training sessions at lunch and I was able to get both a long run and a long ride in this weekend. 18 1/2 total hours for the week. It's a lot of time but I love it. I meet friends for the runs and the long ride. With the exception of the long bike ride I'm done before breakfast.
